Protect Your Capital First

Before thinking about how much a trade could make, think about how much you could lose.

Capital gives you the ability to continue learning and participate in future opportunities.

One oversized position can undo weeks of careful decisions.

Define your risk, respect your stop, and never let excitement determine your position size.

The first responsibility of a trader is not to make a fortune overnight.

It's to survive long enough to develop a repeatable process.
